DO NOT COME TO THIS POST OFFICE! This post office was just about the worst one I have visited! None of the post offices in the area of Los Angeles are good, but this one is even worse than the one located right near my house in downtown. It makes the downtown location look like a palace! And the downtown location is horrible too because those employees make up their own hours and just tape up paper signs to the door when they want to close and leave early for the day! But nothing is as bad in comparison to this location! I was trying to mail some cards internationally for my graduation to my family. I told the clerk that I was mailing these to Canada and to Italy. She understood that or at least she acted like she did then proceeds to keep asking the other clerk which stamps need to be used because she obviously did not know what she was doing! She gets out the stamps that are for the USA forever stamps, I questioned her on that because I knew those were not the right ones, the ones that go for international mail, have a flower on them, and they say global. She kept assuring me that those were the right ones and Was definitely getting a snippy attitude because she kept thinking that I was questioning her. But it's because she was wrong! So she goes ahead and charges me for the USA stamps that I did not ask for, then tells me to put the stamps on myself, I then tell her how these are going international Mail, and then she blames me, saying that I did not tell her that these are going to Italy in Canada, she told me that these could not be exchanged, and cannot be refunded so that I had to keep the Forever stamps and pay the difference and purchase the global stamps. Keep in mind that should've been done the first time, and I should not have to do another transaction! I told her this is her fault and USPS's fault because I did not ask for those. She proceeds to turn off her microphone and starts mouthing off and calling me names, and cursing me out to the coworker and saying I'm not going to go back-and-forth with her and other words of profanity, and very bad language! It was absolutely appalling, and there was no need to talk to a customer that way ever! I was very calm about the whole situation And it should've been a 2 to 3 minute. Transaction turned into about 15 to 20 minutes! Finally, she finds the stamps with the help of her manager and I told her how I was not paying the difference for her mistake, so finally she goes and pulls the money out from her own purse And pays me the difference, it was very ghetto and not professional at all, because that is not policy that you can go into your personal belongings and pay a customer out of your own pocket! But at that point, I did not even care because I was owed that since she did not do what she was supposed to do. And nothing about her outfits said that she was a USPS postal worker, she had on a brown trenchcoat and casual clothing. If she was not behind the counter, I would've thought that she was just another customer. Absolutely ridiculous, they have no rules and no supervision over there. I will never return to this post office again, because I hope that the letter will show up to Canada and Italy. This incompetent worker even gave me the correct, postage! Absolutely ridiculous. These people do not know their a-s-s from a hole in the ground. Mind you I have work to get to, and I was quickly stopping by on my lunch break, this, of course, mishap made me late to work, and I got in trouble with my manager because I was late getting back! The employees here need to be properly trained or better yet this post office, location should be closed down! The USPS, customer service and general helpfulness if there ever was any has definitely declined to nothing over the years, and I am highly disappointed in them! I will definitely be looking for a different male carrier to mail my international letters next time! Absolutely ridiculous! And the parking lot was filthy and full of trash, it was hard to even find a parking spot that did not have either garbage or broken glass in it! And the inside of the post office was dirty, and there was trash laying around in there as well. And since the whole mishap took so long, it was past 5 PM and the post office was closed. The manager had the doors locked, and it took him a good few minutes to even come out and let us out the door! Very unprofessional and stupid! DO NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE! read more
